Kehidupan laut - dari virus hingga ikan paus - dibangun dari "biomolekul". Biomolekul seperti DNA mengisi setiap tetes air laut, butiran sedimen, dan hembusan udara laut.
The Biomolecular Ocean Observing Network (OBON) will develop a global system that will allow science and society to understand ocean life like never before. The programme will transform how we sense, harvest, protect, and manage ocean life, which faces multiple stresses including pollution, habitat loss, and climate change. It will also help communities detect biological hazards like harmful algal blooms and pathogens and be a key component of next-generation ocean observing systems
